Well The Time Has Finally Come

We are leaving tomorrow for 6+ months and I can hardly believe it's here:). This is a dream DW and I have had for a very long time and it's coming true. DW retired early this fall then had to have shoulder surgery. The surgery was a rough one and she has had a few set backs which has ultimately set our plans back a few weeks but that's life, right?? I'm just glad she is doing better. Well I just wanted to share with everyone our excitement which I'm sure many of you have experienced just before leaving on that first big trip. Safe travels to everyone. Take care.

  • Maybe he didn't tell us where they were going because he doesn't know. That's what I love about RVing. Over heard a couple answer this question: "when you leave in the morning where are you going?". The answer: "we are not sure. When we get to the interstate we'll decide whether we go left or right". I have always wanted to do just that now we can and do. Love it! (At least we still do when not visiting doctors)
  • My bad, we will be heading to Pensacola, FL for a week or so to spend Thanksgiving with our son who is stationed there in the Navy. Then on down to Lakeland, FL for a month for the holidays with the in-laws in the RV section of there park and both our kids will be joining us. After the holiday we will be slowly heading west to places unknown. We have no specific plans just general ideas in mind. At some point we will be visiting family in San Diego for a few days and traveling up to Carmel for a few days to visit some good friends. We hope to stay off major hwys as much as possible and take our time bouncing from place to place. We love hiking and biking and look forward to some jeep trail riding as well. Other than that DW and I will just fly by the seat of our pants building memories.
